Additionally supported within the new app is the Phantom 4, however now we have not heard from DJI themselves but for an reason there may be now two variations of their cellular app floating round.
Diving in, DJI Go 4 is a close to reproduction of the prevailing DJI Go app for Android and iOS. Up to date paintings is a nice begin, however the options, largely, stay the identical at first look. Past the homepage and primary settings is the place the magic occurs, with a stream of latest and improved options to get essentially the most out of your drone.
The important thing options that DJI highlights as updates to the brand new DJI Go 4 app are “close to real-time picture transmission” and a few improved digital camera controls.

DJI selling close to real-time is, consider it or not, solely a small velocity enhance in video transmission, not less than so far as the Mavic Professional and newer Phantom 4 Professional and Encourage 2 are involved. To not discredit the achievement, however now we have been having fun with close to real-time FPV already.

Enhancements to video playback and modifying options are a pleasant contact, DJI makes it straightforward to create movies out of your aerial footage, together with music and built-in templates, each of that are up to date in DJI Go 4 as effectively.
Again to DJI’s most important promotion, digital camera settings changes.

With the vast majority of the drones at the moment supported by DJI Go 4 being extra like cameras with wings, the extra digital camera management the higher, I’d say.
Out there for Android units working not less than Android 4.4. DJI Go is a free app within the Google Play Retailer, out there now for obtain.
